  • Publication number: 20230186231
    Abstract: A carbon cost logistics system is provided which uses supply-chain-based data-analysis to determine, at least in part, a carbon logistics cost for each item of multiple items, and based on the determined carbon logistics costs, identifies a lowest carbon logistics cost item of the multiple items. The system further determines whether the lowest carbon logistics cost item of the multiple items meets one or more user-specified constraints, and based on the lowest carbon logistics cost item meeting the user-specified constraint(s), initiates an action to obtain the lowest carbon logistics cost item.

  • Publication number: 20230056637
    Abstract: A system, method, and computer program product for implementing configuration solution service management is provided. The method includes ingesting from managed hardware and software service components associated with a first entity, data and associated metadata associated with establishing baseline analysis code. The data and associated metadata are analyzed via execution of code associated with a recurrent neural network and long short-term memory configured to determine if a current managed hardware or software solution service design is associated with client requirements and industry trends. Recommendations, statistical analysis, predictions, a proposed new client profile, and sizing attributes of the additional managed hardware and software service components are generated. In response, additional managed hardware and software service components are configured with respect to operationally functionality for the first entity.

  • Patent number: 11321797
    Abstract: A user can wear a device which emits a visual and/or audible output. The output changes over time. A system is capable of predicting the output. Thus, the system can analyze a video and determine, based on observed output of the device, whether the video has been modified. The output can be particularly difficult for humans to modify, detect, understand, or recreate, further impeding attempts to disguise edits to the video.

  • Publication number: 20220083685
    Abstract: Technology for storing legal hold data in the cloud (for example, in containers), where the source of the data stored in the cloud is independent backup copy(ies) that are maintained by an enterprise subject to a legal hold order. Changing the legal hold data as it is stored in the set of backup copy(ies) in a manner will not change the legal hold data as it is stored in the cloud. Mechanism may also be provided for auditing chain of custody and authenticating parties who request legal hold data to be delivered from cloud storage.

  • Publication number: 20210352085
    Abstract: A method, system, and program product for controlling power associated with connectivity between devices is provided. The method includes scheduling a copy function associated with copying data from a production hardware device to a secure hardware device at a specified time period. A first hardware connection between the production hardware device and a production network associated with the production hardware device is disabled during the specified time period and a second hardware connection between the production hardware device and the secure hardware device is enabled. A subsequent copy function is enabled for copying the data from the production hardware device to the secure hardware device. The second hardware connection between the production hardware device and the secure hardware device is disabled after the copy function has completed. In response, the first hardware connection between the production hardware device and the production network is enabled.

  • Patent number: 10831888
    Abstract: A method for detecting ransomware. A set of control files in a set of locations in a file system is checked, by a computer system, in response to an event, wherein the set of control files has a set of extensions targeted by the ransomware. In response to detecting a change in any of the set of control files, a file copying process for the file system is disabled by the computer system.
